NVIDIA is releasing an experimental version of the Project G-Assist System Assistant feature for GeForce RTX desktop users via the NVIDIA app. Project G-Assist runs locally on GeForce RTX AI PCs and is built to help users control a broad range of PC settings, from optimizing game and system settings, charting frame rates, and other key performance statistics to controlling select peripheral settings such as lighting—all via basic voice or text commands. G-Assist can provide real-time diagnostics and recommendations to alleviate system bottlenecks, improve power efficiency, optimize game settings, overclock GPU, and much more.
AI developers and enthusiasts can also extend the capabilities of G-Assist by building custom plugins. To get started, NVIDIA has published a GitHub repository with samples and instructions for creating plugins that control PC peripherals, connect to 3rd-party app APIs, and more. G-Assist is built with NVIDIA ACE; the same AI tech suite game developers use to breathe life into NPCs, and can be downloaded through NVIDIA app’s Home tab in the Discovery section. To expand the possibilities of local generative AI workflows, NVIDIA NIM microservices are now available on RTX AI PCs and workstations, with AI Blueprints coming soon.
In addition to Project G-Assist availability, the NVIDIA app has several other updates launching this week, including expanding the functionality of DLSS overrides and enabling players to fine-tune image quality or boost performance. The new NVIDIA app update adds a new feature to the “DLSS Override—Super Resolution” setting for users who have GeForce Game Ready Driver or NVIDIA Studio Driver 572.83 WHQL or newer installed. Previously, it could activate DLAA or DLSS Super Resolution Ultra Performance mode in games and apps lacking native support. Now, players can enable any DLSS preset or customize the resolution scaling between 33% and 100%. Display Scaling and Display Color settings have also been moved over from the NVIDIA Control Panel, modernizing and improving them and taking another step towards unifying all NVIDIA GPU features in one responsive application.
NVIDIA also supports DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation in new games, including Enlisted KARMA: The Dark World, The First Berserker: Khazan, and Warhammer 40,000: Darktide. DLSS 4 is coming to Remedy Entertainment’s FBC: Firebreak at launch.
In Enlisted, the WW2 MMO shooter game, each player commands a squad of AI-controlled soldiers in battle, taking direct control as needed, giving battles massive scale and period-accurate intensity. Enlisted already includes support for DLSS Frame Generation, DLSS Super Resolution, and NVIDIA Reflex. With this latest update, Enlisted’s visual effects are further enhanced with DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation, magnifying performance by an average of 4.3X at 4K max settings for GeForce RTX 50 Series gamers. Using the NVIDIA app, GeForce RTX gamers can upgrade DLSS Super Resolution to the latest transformer AI model, enhancing image quality.
FBC: Firebreak, the award-winning game from Remedy Entertainment, is a three-player cooperative first-person shooter. Set in the Federal Bureau of Control, familiar to fans of the critically acclaimed Control, players and their team are on call to confront everything from reality-warping corrupted items to otherworldly monsters. DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation, the entire suite of DLSS 4 technologies, and NVIDIA Reflex will be available at launch in FBC: Firebreak. Additionally, all of the jaw-dropping Full Ray Tracing technologies seen in Alan Wake 2 will return in FBC: Firebreak, allowing gamers to enhance image quality greatly.
Following last year’s beta release, NVIDIA has officially released RTX Remix. To demonstrate its capabilities, Half-Life 2 RTX owners can download a free Half-Life 2 RTX demo from Steam, showcasing Orbifold Studios’ work in Ravenholm and Nova Prospekt, ahead of the full game’s release at a later date. This community-made remaster of Valve’s classic game is made by Orbifold Studios, whose mission is to remaster the entirety of Half-Life 2, which includes updating every texture, model, and level and adding extra geometric detail to buildings and surfaces to interact with fully ray-traced lighting realistically. The demo features DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation, DLSS Super Resolution, DLSS Ray Reconstruction, Neural Radiance Cache, and RTX Volumetrics.
Set in a dystopian 1984 in East Germany, KARMA: The Dark World, a first-person cinematic psychological thriller, explores an alternate timeline where the Leviathan Corporation rules with an iron fist, controlling its citizens through mass surveillance, social class rules, mind-altering drugs, and the promise that the gates to Utopia will open to those who serve. The game launches on Thursday, March 27, supporting DLSS Frame Generation, DLSS Super Resolution, and NVIDIA Reflex. GeForce RTX gamers can upgrade DLSS Super Resolution using the NVIDIA app’s new DLSS 4 overrides, and GeForce RTX 50 Series gamers can activate DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation.
The First Berserker: Khazan from the extensive universe of Dungeon & Fighter follows the Great General Khazan on a journey from being falsely branded a traitor to his escape and ultimate revenge on those who wronged him. Widely available on March 27, Advanced Access Deluxe Edition buyers can now access it by downloading a two-level demo from Steam. All GeForce RTX gamers can activate DLSS Super Resolution, accelerating frame rates, and NVIDIA Reflex to reduce PC latency and make battles more responsive. Alternatively, activate DLAA if there is performance to spare, maximizing image quality. GeForce RTX gamers can also upgrade DLSS Super Resolution using NVIDIA app’s new DLSS 4 overrides, and GeForce RTX 50 Series gamers can activate DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation to multiply performance by 3.5X on average at 4K max settings.
With the Nightmares and Visions update launching this week in Warhammer 40,000: Darktide, players can return to the depths of Tertium, an unforgiving hive city of the 41st millennium, to root out heretics attempting to gain control of the city.
